Special to The Telegraph
Eberly's Mill, Pa.. May 26. —Resi-
dents of Eberly's Mill may be without

change hands. The party taking the
business, it is said, refuses to take
the post office. About 150 persons se
cure mail here, farmers from the
country districts coming to tho town
for their mail. If the office is re
moved residents of this place will re
ceive their mail by a rural route from
the Camp Hill post office. A petition
is in circulation to save the office and
when completed will be given to Dr. J.

Stick This
on Your Spindle
A Nurse says:
"I have been a trained nurse for somt fifteen years,
and like many nurses, drank strong coffee. About
two years ago I had to call a halt. I missed my
coffee until some one recommended Postum, which
I have used ever since, recommending it to many of
my patients."
A Teacher says:
"I have been a coffee drinker ever since I can remem-'
ber. I have been teaching school for sixteen years,
and became more and more nervous. I could not
sleep. After reading some of your literature I de
cided to try Postum. I have been using it about thirty
days; my nerves have improved; I have no head
ache; sleep peacefully, and am able to do my school
work better."
A Doctor says:
"I often find it necessary to prohibit the use of coffee
for my patients, and have advised the use of Postum
with good results to the nervous system and diges
tive apparatus."
When the time comes that you want to get rid
of coffee troubles, quit coffee and use
POSTUM
—the pure food-drink.
Made of wheat, roasted with a bit of wholesome
molasses, Postum is entirely free from the coffee
drug, caffeine, or any other harmful substance.
Both Postum Cereal—which has to be boiled—and
Instant Postum —made in the cup instantly—are delicious,
nourishing, and cost about the same per cup.
"There's a Reason" for Postum

and Talk by Noted Philadelphia
Social Worker

and an interesting talk on children and
child welfare by J. Bruce Byall, secre
tary of the Children's Bureau of Phila
delphia, were features yesterday of

cis Jordan Hall, first vice-president;
Mrs. Morris Jacobson, second vice
president; Miss Elizabeth Bailey, sec
retary, and Vance C. McCormick,
treasurer. A vote of thanks was ten
dered Frank Brady, the retiring treas
urer. In her address Mrs. Kunkel, the
president, paid a glowing tribute to
the work of Mrs. John K. Tener, wife
of the former Governor, as a member
of the society.
Of special Interest was the report
of Mrs. Elsie V. Middleton. general
secretary, who explained how the
Nursery Home, Children's Industrial
Home. Associated Charities, Visiting
Nurse Asoclatlon. Juvenile courts,
Roberta Disbrow Lloyd Sunshine So
ciety and the Directors of the Poor
co-operate for the betterment of the
welfare of the child. Mrs. Middleton
reported that all told there are about
339 children, and 149 were taken in
during the past year alone, as against
...I 1813 - "The society believes,"
Middleton, "that the normal
child should be removed from an In
stitution and placed In a proper family
home."
Treasurer Brady In a splendid re
port indicated how well the various
committees had worked In expending
the money allowed them. The ex
penditures all told were $5,411.35,
Contributions from various sources
totaled J2.147.31, while relatives. Di
rectors of the Poor, etc., paid in
$2,276.09.
In urging co-operation among all
societies and organizations whose aim
is the uplift and improvement, phys
ically and mentally, of the child Mr.
Byall condemned jealousy on the part
of social workers toward each other
as the chief obstacle to a proper work
ing out of the problems.
Mr. Byall also declared that the
child as soon as possible should be
taken out of an Institution and placed
in a proper home. This will give the
child a chance to develop its indi
viduality. "You don't grow up in a
hospital; you are merely treated there.
And so no child should grow up in an
institution if it is possible for it to be
placed in a private home," said tht.
Philadelphian.

This wonderful blood remedy works on
the principle of stimulating cell growth,

life into the tissues, to stop decay, to pre
vent the formation of those accumulations
of broken-down cells that rapidly multiply
into bolls and other eruptions. Science
explains Just how certain elements in the
blood feed the bones, nourish the muscles.
Invigorate the nerves and supply all parts
of the body with materials to keep It In
health. And it Is the same aetlon that
enables S. S. S. to attack all diseased

heaJ all sore spots and supplant the activity
.of disease-producing causes with a power
